Umify: Adding Fun to Boring Articles
Umify is a free Chrome add-on developed by Benjamin Hollon that aims to add a touch of entertainment to your browsing experience. This add-on scans web pages and randomly inserts words like "um," "like," and "y'know" at various intervals. Whether you're reading a dry scientific article or a formal piece of writing, Umify brings a lighthearted twist that can leave you laughing with tears of joy.
With Umify, even a simple Wikipedia article becomes a source of amusement. Imagine coming across a passage from Hamlet that goes like this: "To be, or not to, um, be, that is, um, the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to, like, suffer The slings and arrows of, like, y'know, outrageous fortune, Or to, um, take arms against a sea of, like, um, troubles And by opposing end them."
It's important to note that Umify only works on content that is already present when the page loads. So any new content added afterward will not be affected by the add-on.
